    that complements the company's existing technology.

    to do so," Llobet said.

    During this time, Scheffer became a major cotton producer in Brazil and worked hard to understand the aspirations and demands of farmers," said Guilherme Scheffer, Partner and Director of Scheffer, "About seven years ago, we started farming with regenerative technologies that not only promote low-carbon agriculture, but also create a more resilient ecosystem
